That really has nothing to do with what this article is about.

It may or may not. I've often wondered how much sliding demand for PC's is due to an increase in sales of Apple products. Unfortunately, the entire decades long infatuation with these sales figures relies on Gartner, which I believe was bought off in the early 90's by Microsoft. The critical piece of information that would make these figures useful is what percentage are corporate purchases, and that's the part that's never been reported in all the 30 years I've been watching. Every time I bring it up here, my question is ignored, and I can't figure out why no one else is curious about this.
